Datang: This imperial censor has a million points of recklessness!

Chapter 34
"Crime of lying? Is this also a crime?" Li Shimin asked very puzzled.

While Li Shimin was questioning, he also had a little bit of complacency.

I thought to myself, there is no such crime in Tang Dynasty at all, this time, I can bite you back and say that you made up an unfounded crime!
"Your Majesty, it is true that there is no such crime, but that is for the courtiers and common people, but it is different for Your Majesty.

Your Majesty is the king of a country, you are not joking, your words and deeds represent the face of Datang.

If you don't keep what you said, then we will lose the face of our entire Tang Dynasty. If you say this crime, is it true? "Cheng Yu said calmly.

[Ding, the host is right about Li Shimin, it is well-founded, points +20! 】

Poor Li Shimin, before he was happy for a while, he was rendered speechless by Cheng Yu's words.

That's right, he is the king of a country. If it is spread that he doesn't count what he says, what will the other courtiers think and what will the common people think!

At this moment, all his previous thoughts of wanting to turn against Cheng Yu had disappeared.

Li Shimin nodded, and said a little tiredly.

"Okay, Cheng Yushi, don't you just want to be this Yushi Zhongcheng, I promised you before, and now, I will fulfill my promise.

Appoint Cheng Yu...! "

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Your Majesty, this Cheng Yu can't be Yushi Zhongcheng!"

Wei Zheng and Changsun Wuji said at the same time.

"Your Majesty, as the chief censor of the censor platform, I do not agree with Cheng Yu being the prime minister of the censor!" Wei Zheng stepped forward and said.

"Your Majesty, I also disagree. This Cheng Yu has only been a censor for three days. He is not qualified to be the censor Zhongcheng!" Changsun Wuji hurriedly said.

In his heart, he already hated Cheng Yu to the core, how could he let him get his wish so easily.

As a young censor, he already dared to be so disrespectful to him. If he was really allowed to be the censor Zhongcheng, wouldn't it be even more important to ride on his own head.

So he tried his best to stop it.

As for Wei Zheng, he still held his previous prejudice against Cheng Yu, thinking that he was still that dandy who only spends time and money, and could not take on such a big responsibility, and he was really considering it for Yushitai.

If you say that Wei Zheng is good at everything, he is too stubborn and refuses to let go of his prejudice against Cheng Yu.

Seeing the two of them come out to stop them, Li Shimin felt a little lucky in his heart.

I thought, I can't deal with you, but someone can deal with you. If this matter is really messed up by the two of them, then you can't blame me for not fulfilling my promise!

"Cheng Yushi, you see, it's not that I don't want you to be the censor. Both Zheng Guogong and Qi Guogong are against it. Otherwise, you wait a little longer? After a few years of censorship, when you have enough qualifications, I will I'm promoting you, so naturally no one will object!" Li Shimin said.

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Cheng Yu thought, Jiang is really old and hot, isn't this just perfunctory me, waiting for a few years?I can't wait that long.

But he didn't panic, didn't you all disagree, I still haven't used my big move yet!
"Since this is the case, then the minister will not embarrass His Majesty."

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this time he must give his grandson Wuji and Wei Zheng a credit, and Cheng Yu's big trouble was finally solved.

But he was happy too early, Cheng Yu is not someone who gives up so easily.

Li Shimin hadn't completely let go of his breath when he heard Cheng Yu continue.

"Although I can't be the censor Zhongcheng, I will still help your Majesty solve problems and serve the people of Tang Dynasty.

Your Majesty, although the plague of locusts has been alleviated temporarily, you don't think there will be any worries anymore! "

Hearing this, Li Shimin frowned immediately. Naturally, he wouldn't think so naively, but he didn't have a better way now.

Due to the drought and the locust plague, food was already in short supply. In Chang'an City, they were doing well. In other places, many people had become refugees because they couldn't eat.

Walking all the way to Chang'an, along the way, there were beatings, looting, looting and burning, which caused a great hidden danger to public security.

It's a pity that the grain in this granary is not enough for disaster relief at the moment, and he didn't think of any better way to do this.

"Of course I don't think so, it's just that this worry won't be solved for a while, I just ask God to bless me, Tang, and let this disaster pass quickly!"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, if we do nothing, then not only will this disaster not pass quickly, but it will also lead to even greater disasters!" Cheng Yu said.

"Greater disaster, what do you mean!" Li Shimin asked in horror after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, in order to prevent you from feeling that I am alarmist, let Mr. Fang discuss this matter.

Mr. Fang, your research and understanding of this locust is the most professional of all the adults present. Why don't you tell me whether this locust plague can be solved so easily! "Cheng Yu said to Fang Xuanling.

After hearing this, Fang Xuanling took two steps forward and said.

"Your Majesty, Cheng Yushi is right. I wanted to report this matter to you today."

"Quick, tell me quickly, what's going on?" Li Shimin asked anxiously.

"Your Majesty, although most of the locusts have been eaten by the people, there are still many eggs in the field. These eggs are constantly hatching, and the locusts are coming in waves. It is difficult to clean them up completely.

And because of the drought and the plague of locusts, the people's food is already running out, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive this winter! "

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Du Ruhui also came out and said.

"It's winter, the weather is cold, every year when there is a good harvest, many people are still frozen to death, and this year when there is a famine, it is unknown how many people will die because of it.

At that time, I am afraid that the people will not be able to live, and the people will be in turmoil because of this! "

Hearing what the two of them said, Li Shimin knew that things were serious.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are his most powerful think tanks, and they are known as Fang Mou Duan in later generations.

Li Shimin trusted the words of the two of them very much, and since the things they both said were so serious, they had indeed reached a very serious point.

"You are right, I was too optimistic, thinking that the locust plague would be resolved, and there would be no serious troubles in the future!
That being the case, dear dears, do you have any good ideas? " Li Shimin asked.

The ministers present fell into collective silence once again, because they really couldn't think of any good solution.
